Exodus 22.21-24
“You shall not wrong a sojourner or oppress him, for you were sojourners in the land of Egypt. You shall not mistreat any widow or fatherless child. If you do mistreat them, and they cry out to me, I will surely hear their cry, and my wrath will burn, and I will kill you with the sword, and your wives shall become widows and your children fatherless.”
Who are “sojourners” in our society today? Are we treating them with justice and love? Am I?
Evening Meditation
Leviticus 19.33, 34
“When a stranger sojourns with you in your land, you shall not do him wrong. You shall treat the stranger who sojourns with you as the native among you, and you shall love him as yourself, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.”
Exodus 23.9
“You shall not oppress a sojourner. You know the heart of a sojourner, for you were sojourners in the land of Egypt.”
The “heart of a sojourner”? Do I really “know” the heart of such people? Do I have compassion for sojourners and other “strangers”? How is that evident?
